You could get a scoobyecu but i doubt it would give you much more safe power than your already pushing (maybe upto 16psi).
I'd do a search for Rich Wild's car, thats pushing around 340bhp but hes done quite a bit to it and possably a little out of your price range

think they are advertised in the scoobyshop on this sie..
also do a search on scoobyecu..using the sewarch button-top right of screen...theres loads of old threads giving all the answers u need..

and power wise..near 300 now..(to be confirmed soon!)

they are great..and easy to fit on uk my96 motors..took me 2 mins on the drive.
